Product Information

Full details

This RAK Ceramics Ingot recessed shower niche is designed for homeowners undertaking bathroom renovations who want integrated, stylish storage solutions. Its key benefit is providing a clean, flush-mounted space for toiletries, enhanced by subtle LED illumination. A primary consideration is that it requires wall chasing during installation, making it unsuitable for simple surface mounting.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of a recessed niche?

The main advantage is creating a clean, built-in storage space that doesn't protrude into your shower, maintaining a minimalist and clutter-free aesthetic.

Can I install this niche on a surface-mounted wall?

No, this is a recessed niche and requires a chase or opening to be cut into the wall during installation. It cannot be mounted directly onto a flat surface.

What kind of maintenance does the brushed nickel finish require?

The brushed nickel finish should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching or damaging the coating.

Is the LED lighting bright enough to replace a main shower light?

The integrated LED provides ambient illumination, suitable for highlighting items and adding atmosphere. It is generally not intended as the sole light source for a shower enclosure.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The RAK Ceramics Ingot Recessed Niche comes with a 2-year guarantee.

What grade of stainless steel is used?

The niche is constructed from 304-grade stainless steel, known for its excellent resistance to corrosion and rust in wet environments.

Does the niche come with installation instructions?

Detailed installation guidelines should be provided with the product or can be obtained from the manufacturer's official resources. Professional installation is highly recommended.

Troubleshooting

LED light is not working.

Ensure the LED is correctly wired to a suitable power source. Check all electrical connections for security. Verify that the circuit breaker supplying power is on. If problems persist, consult a qualified electrician.

Niche appears to be rusting or corroding.

While 304-grade stainless steel is highly resistant, prolonged exposure to very harsh chemicals or certain types of salt spray can cause issues. Clean the area immediately with a soft cloth and mild soap. Ensure the niche is not accumulating stagnant water.

Difficulty fitting the niche into the wall.

Confirm that the wall opening was cut to the exact dimensions specified by the manufacturer. Ensure there are no obstructions within the wall cavity. Consult your installer if the opening is incorrect.

Water pooling inside the niche.

Verify that the niche is installed with a slight downward slope towards the shower area to allow for drainage. Ensure the surrounding wall area is properly waterproofed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This niche is designed for recessed installation. This means it must be installed into a wall cavity during the construction or renovation phase. A chase or opening in the wall structure is required to accommodate the niche. Electrical wiring for the LED light must be considered during the rough-in stage by a qualified electrician.

Compatibility: The brushed nickel finish is specifically designed to coordinate with the RAK Ingot basin and waste range. While it can be installed in most standard shower wall constructions, consult with your builder or installer to ensure compatibility with your specific wall type and framing.

Care: Clean the brushed nickel finish and stainless steel interior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For the LED component, ensure any electrical connections are secure and protected. The IP44 rating indicates protection against splashing water, but avoid direct, prolonged water jets.
